Top Jimmy Butler News

  • Heat's Jimmy Butler: Iffy for Monday

    Butler (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Nets, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Butler exited Friday's game against the Thunder early due to the illness before missing Saturday's contest against the Magic altogether, and he is now in jeopardy of sitting out his second consecutive outing. If the star forward is sidelined once again, Dru Smith and Pelle Larsson are candidates for increased roles.

  • Heat's Jimmy Butler: Uncertain to play Saturday

    Butler, who played just seven minutes in Friday's 104-97 loss to the Thunder due to an illness, won't be part of the Heat's traveling party to Orlando, and his status for Saturday's game for the Magic is uncertain, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

    Butler made a brief visit to the locker room in the first quarter of Friday's after appearing to roll his ankle, but the Heat ruled him out shortly thereafter due to a stomach bug, per NBA reporter Chris Haynes. He finished the contest with two assists and no other statistics during his time on the court. Winderman relays that despite not traveling with the team, Butler could rejoin the Heat at some point before Saturday's 7 p.m. ET tipoff. If Butler is ruled out for the second leg of the back-to-back set, Jaime Jaquez would likely move into the starting five for Miami after he opened the second half of Friday's game with the Heat's other starters.

  • Heat's Jimmy Butler: Likely to suit up Sunday

    Butler is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers due to right knee soreness.

    Butler is likely to play in the second leg of the Heat's back-to-back set after posting 24 points (9-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one block in 34 minutes during Saturday's win over the Suns.

  • Heat's Jimmy Butler: Posts 24 points in victory

    Butler accumulated 24 points (9-12 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-5 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one block in 34 minutes during Saturday's 121-111 win over the Suns.

    Butler has recorded solid results since returning from a one-game absence, but the veteran has experienced frustrating peaks and valleys with his production. He was able to handle an injury-depleted Phoenix squad with ease, but Butler could use more shot volume and a slightly better field-goal percentage as he progresses through his 14th NBA season.
